Wow! That was a great find! First one I've ever seen. Congrats!

Those are keepers, for sure! That's what I call a good find.

Beautiful. That combo will do it all. Looks like Brian Powley did the excellent engraving.

It's not the gun, but the man behind it.

Fantastic. I am sure that was a hard set for someone to let go, given the history of the folks and the special hunts over the years at the YO. Whatcha got planned for a carrying case for those beauties, besides your gun safe?

Sometimes it is entirely appropriate to kill a fly with a 12 pound sledgehammer!
